The Documentaries of Louis Malle –
Eclipse Series 2
OVER the course of a nearly 40-year career, Louis Malle forged a reputation as one of the world’s most versatile cinematic story-tellers, with such widely acclaimed, and wide-ranging, masterpieces as Elevator to the Gallows, My Dinner with Andre, and Au revoir les enfants.
